Chapter 1152: In the Prison
Chapter 1152: In the Prison
"Chen boy, we used to hear people talking about you a lot."
In the deepest part of the prison, old eunuch Zhou and Chen Yihang sat opposite each other. The atmosphere between them was unexpectedly harmonious.
Moreover, compared to other places, their cell was much cleaner and tidier, and even had a wooden window covered with a straw mat.
"Oh? If I'm not mistaken, the eunuch must be Zhou Chengen, the great eunuch who is said to be invincible under the Grandmaster?"
Chen Yixing raised his eyelids and asked in a calm tone.
"Hehe, it's just an empty reputation."
Old Eunuch Zhou smiled, his face looking like a blooming chrysanthemum. "At my age, I have actually let go of many things. But after all, I have stayed in the palace all my life. From the last emperor to the current emperor, although my status is supreme, as long as I am human, I cannot escape death in the end."
“What does public mean?”
Chen Yihang looked puzzled.
"What our family means is that the emperor can only die of illness or old age, but cannot be killed by outsiders."
Old Eunuch Zhou said slowly, "Although His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has done many wrong things in recent years, he is the heir to the throne after all. He cannot die in such an unclear way."
"It's no use for Eunuch Zhou to tell me this."
Chen Yixing shook his head. "It's not like I want to attack the prince. I'm just a man of the world. I'm not crazy enough."
"But you know that lunatic."
The smile on old eunuch Zhou's face disappeared and his tone became aggressive.
"Even Wu Lingyao is no match for him, but this person seems to have appeared out of nowhere. You are the only person who knows about it. Chen, how about you tell us about it? What kind of person is he?"
“It’s not that I don’t want to say it.”
Chen Yixing felt a little bitter, and cursed Amber countless times in his heart, but his face remained calm: "But I can't say it."
"Why is there no way?"
Old Eunuch Zhou asked in confusion: "Is that person a man or a woman? Is he tall or short? Is he fat or thin? Does he have any relatives alive? What is his identity? You must know one or two of these questions, right?"
"do not know."
Chen Yixing shook his head. "He has never revealed his true identity to me, and didn't he agree to show up on the 15th of this month? Then all the answers will be revealed."
"It will probably be too late by then."
Old Eunuch Zhou leaned forward and asked, "Are you really not going to say anything?"
Chen Yixing remained silent. He really didn't know and didn't dare to say anything.
After all, no matter which side it is, it is not easy to offend.
Seeing his expression, Old Eunuch Zhou did not choose to interrogate him, but instead fell silent.
Just like I said just now, by this fifteenth day, all the answers will be revealed.
There is no need to say much about Tuoba Yuanshan on the court side, he naturally stands on the side of the royal family. Although Wu Lingyao is heartless and ruthless, she can also be won over.
The only troublesome one is Master Zhang Tianshi.
But the problem is not that big. As long as the emperor is willing to pay the price, he can always get it.
The three great masters, plus several battalions of soldiers from Kyoto, fired their bows and crossbows at the same time. If that person dared to show up in the East Palace, he would be killed without a burial place.
Based on the above, old eunuch Zhou can sit here steadily.
Time passed slowly, and the news about the fourth grandmaster gradually spread in the world, along with the words that were released.
On the fifteenth day of this month, enter the East Palace and kill the crown prince
Such a daring act made those people in the martial arts world who were eager to watch the fun excited, and they all chose to rush to Kyoto.
In just a few days, the huge capital city was overcrowded.
Because of this, Jingzhao Yin was so angry that his hair turned white. He decisively took strong measures and arrested anyone who dared to cause trouble, regardless of whether they were right or wrong.
If there is no room in the jail, send them to the military camp. In short, they have somewhere to go.
With the cooperation of the City Guards, no major chaos occurred in the end.
"Uncle, uncle, it's time to get up!"
Early that morning, Cui Liu's magpie-like call was heard outside on time, with a bit of joy in her voice. The reason why she was so happy was that after An Bai and Qin Qing became closer, her status had improved a lot compared to before. Now when people called her, they had to add "sister" after her name, otherwise it would be impolite.
"It's too early, I'll sleep a little longer!"
Amber didn't want to get up early after going out for a long time yesterday.
"But you have important things to do today!"
Cui Liu stood outside the door with her hands on her hips and shouted, "Open the door quickly, or it will be too late."
"What's important?"
Amber asked loudly, sticking her head out from under the covers.
"Didn't the son-in-law promise the lady that he would accompany her to the Da Ci'en Temple to burn incense today?!"
Cui Liu finally couldn't help it, and reached out her hand and patted the door: "Son-in-law, you didn't forget it, did you?"
"Ahem, I didn't forget. I'll get up right away."
Amber then remembered that when she was having dinner with Qin Wei and others a few days ago, she agreed to Zhou's proposal.
The reason was that he wanted to ask the Bodhisattva for blessings, so that he and Qin Qing could have a child as soon as possible, preferably a boy.
She got out of bed and opened the door, then with Cui Liu's help, Amber washed up, put on her clothes, and left Zizhuxuan.
As soon as they arrived outside the inner house, they saw the head maid Yuhuan and several other maids coming out carrying large and small bags, and the two sides met face to face.
"Uncle!"
When Yuhuan saw Amber, she immediately bowed and the other maids behind her followed suit.
"Madam was just talking about you, let's go outside quickly."
"My mother-in-law and my wife are already out?"
Amber asked, rubbing her eyes.
"Madam has been sitting in the carriage for a long time, but Miss has just left."
Yuhuan answered obediently, "Sir, please leave quickly."
"Well, let's go."
Amber nodded and followed him out of the house.
"What are you talking about?"
"To answer my son-in-law, these are some things for offering to the Buddha, and some incense money."
Yuhuan replied immediately.
Zhou was a devout Buddhist and she would visit a temple every time Buddha's birthday came. The most famous Daijienji Temple in Kyoto was her favorite place to stay.
Amber nodded, then looked at Cuiliu.
The latter pouted and patted the bag behind him, indicating that he was ready.
There was no conversation along the way. When everyone arrived at the main gate of the Qin Mansion, they saw two carriages that had been waiting for a long time.
"Why did you come!"
The curtain was drawn open, and Qin Qing poked his head out and said with disdain.
As a result, before Amber could even say anything, she was ruthlessly suppressed by Zhou.
"Bai Er, hurry up and get in the car. If you go too late, there will be too many people and it will be inconvenient to do anything."
"My son-in-law saved it."
Amber immediately led Cuiliu to another carriage. This scene made the maids, except Yuhuan, look envious.
After all, they had to walk there.
